The Network provides a support structure including standards for institutions that are establishing and enforcing policies to promote the prevention of drug use and alcohol abuse. The work of the Network reinforces °Goals 2000: Educate America Act,' the President's proposed education and reform bill that would codify into law the six National Education Goals and their objectives. One of those goals is that by the year 2000 'every school in America will be free of drugs...' The Network has increased to 1,500 members representing every state in the Union, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Northern Marianas, and the Virgin Islands. The member institutions we listed in this Directory. AU of them have endorsed written commitments to the implementation of the Network's Standards. This Directory also identifies national and regional contacts and resources to enhance development of campus-based education and prevention programs. We intend for this Directory to assist you in exchanging information with colleagues at other colleges and universities. Shirley A. Jackson Director Comprehensive School Health Education Programs Fund for the Improvement and Reform of Schools and Teaching Office of Educational Research and Improvement v American society is harmed in many ways by alcohol abuse and other drug usedecreased productivity, serious health problems, breakdown of the family structure, and strained societal resources. Problems related to alcohol and other drugs have a pervasive impact upon many segments of societyall socioeconomic groups, all age levels, and even the unborn. Education and learning are especially impaired; alcohol abuse and other drug use by college students inhibits their educational development and is a growing concern among our Nation's institutions of higher education. Recent national and campus surveys indicate that alcohol use is more prevalent than other drug use and that institutions increasingly are requesting community support and mounting cooperative efforts to enforce their policies. As higher education entered the 1980s, there was clear recognition that alcohol abuse and other drug use were major problems. Institutions responded by increasing disciplinary sanctions and educational programs. The higher education community, through various professional associations, also took action. In 1981, the Inter-Association Task Force on Alcohol and Other Substance Issues was created. That Task Force, made up of representatives of various higher education associations, developed college marketing guidelines targeted a the sale and distribution of alcohol products on U.S. campuses.With the cooperation of colleges and universities, in 1984, the Task Force created National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week and established a model campus alcohol policy. In 1986, Congress responded to the national problem by passing the Drug Free Schools and Communities Act to establish, implement and expand programs of drug abuse education and prevention (including rehabilitation referral) for students enrolled in colleges and universities...° Unfortunately, colleges that attempted to institute model programs or effective strategies for coping with problems related to alcohol abuse and other drug use found sparse information available in the national data bases and no formal mechanisms for sharing information. In 1987, the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Educational Research and Improvement responded to the higher education community's need for assistance by calling for a network of institutions willing to commit time, energy, and resources to eradicate substance abuse on their campuses. The stated goals were (1) to collect and disseminate research and practice-based knowledge about successful programs; (2) to provide a forum and mechanism for continuing communication and collaboration among institutions of higher education; and (3) to identify areas and problems for further research and development. With this purpose in mind, a group of 15 higher education administrators met to develop a set of minimum standards required for institutions to become members in the Network of Colloges and Universities Committed to the Elimination of Drug and Alochol Abuse.This group represented a cross section of individuals concerned with campus substance abuse and included chief student affairs officers, health educators, and legal specialists. The standards formulated a the meeting were reviewed, modified, and affirmed.In December 1987, the Secretary of Education convened a select group of college presidents representing liberal arts institutions, large universities, military schools, and 2-year colleges. This group also reviewed, modified, and affi rmed the standards. These standards have been reviewed by professional higher education associations for their endorsement. The Network seeks the participation of colleges and universities who have made a solid commitment throughout their institutions to achieve the following goals: 1 establish and enforce clear policies that promote an educational environment free from the abuse of alcohol and use of other drugs; educate members of the campus community for the purpose of preventing alcohol abuse and other drug use, as well as educate them about the use of legal drugs in ways that are not harmful to themselves or to others; create an environment that promotes and reinforces healthy, responsible living; respect for community and campus standards and regulations; the individual's responsibility within the community; and the intellectual, social, emotional, spiritual or ethical, and physical well-being of its community members; and provide for a reasonable level of care for alcohol abusers and other drug users through counseling, treatment, and referral.

  • Introduction: in Search of Esperanto
    Interdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems 13(2), 182-192, 2015 INTRODUCTION: IN SEARCH OF ESPERANTO Humphrey Tonkin* University of Hartford West Hartford, USA DOI: 10.7906/indecs.13.2.12 Regular article ABSTRACT After almost one hundred years of continuous use, Esperanto has achieved the status and character of a fully-fledged language, functioning much as any other language does. Research on Esperanto is hampered because knowledge of the subject is often regarded, ipso facto, as evidence of a lack of objectivity, and also because Esperanto, as largely an L2, is elusive, and its speakers hard to quantify. The problem is compounded by the rapid shift in its community from membership-based organizations to decentralized, informal web-based communication. Also shifting are the community’s ideological underpinnings: it began as a response to lack of communication across languages but is now often perceived by its users as an alternative, more equitable means of communication than the increasingly ubiquitous English. Underlying these changes is a flourishing cultural base, including an extensive literature and periodical press. There is a need for more research – linguistic, sociolinguistic, and in the history of ideas. In intellectual history, Esperanto and related ideas have played a larger role than is generally recognized, intersecting with, and influencing, such movements as modernization in Japan, the development of international organizations, socialism in many parts of the world, and, in our own day, machine translation. KEY WORDS Esperanto, Esperanto community, interlinguistic research, language ideology CLASSIFICATION JEL: O20 *Corresponding author, : [email protected]; +1 860 768 4448; *Mortensen Library, University of Hartford, West Hartford, CT 06117, USA Introduction: in search of Esperanto INTRODUCTION In an influential essay some years ago, the late Richard Wood described Esperanto as “a voluntary, non-ethnic, non-territorial speech community” [1].
